Summary:
As a mother in rural India sings to her baby, a weaverbird builds a nest for its young. The reader is privy to the characters and scattering of Hindi words that describe rural village life. The illustrations show the versatility of a mother's scarf that can be turned into a baby's hammock and how a bird can adorn a nest of fireflies. A celebration of nature and culture, it includes a Hindi-English glossary.
